Third update improves deployment and profiling too.

Microsoft is continuing to churn out regular updates to its developer tools with the release today of Visual Studio 2013 Update 3. As with previous updates, the release includes as mix of bug fixes and new capabilities.

New features include expanding the memory usage profiler to support both .NET applications using WPF and native code applications using Win32, CodeLens support for git repositories so work items and change history can be shown integrated in the text editor, and a better debugging experience for Windows Store apps on multimonitor systems.

Other parts of Microsoft's developer ecosystem were also updated today. The Windows Phone 8.1 Update preview is now available on all phones enrolled in the developer preview program, and the developer emulator images have been updated accordingly.

The SDK for Azure has been updated to version 2.4 with improved support for working with Azure-hosted virtual machines.

The preview release of what Microsoft calls "Multi-device Hybrid Apps"—HTML5 smartphone and tablet apps using Cordova—has also been upgraded, and any developers using this preview will need the upgrade if they install the Visual Studio update. The preview includes wider operating system support, including conventional desktop platforms such as Windows 7.

Enlarge/ Visual Studio users can now switch between ALL CAPS menus and Title Case ones.

But the big upgrade, the one that developers will rush to download the new update for, isn't any of this. It's the menu bars. With Update 3, Visual Studio now has an option to make the menu bar text use Title Case instead of its previous ALL CAPS, with the setting roaming to any machine signed in with the same Microsoft Account.
